I had hoped very much to see my wife yesterday (she has been on a week-long business trip in the UK), but our reunion has been postponed as a result of a volcano eruption in Iceland of all things.
Unpronounceable though it may be, Eyjafjallajokull (ay-yah-FYAH-lah-yer-kuhl) is wreaking havoc on air travel in northern Europe. When I told my kids that their mom was stuck in England because of an Icelandic volcano, at first they didn't believe me. Who would have guessed?

About all I can say is: let's hope the wind starts blowing the cloud north for a change.
Random scribblings about life in our family. This blog was started back in 2008 when we moved to Cambridge (UK) for a year.
